In order to provide an appropriate, individualized program for all incoming CLASS Academy students, it is necessary to assess each student's level of academic strength in both mathematics and language arts. The first administration of the Test of Adult Basic Skills (TABE) was given on Wednesday, July 28, 2010. Any student who was scheduled to take the test on this date, but missed the test, will have an opportunity to take the test during the second administration. The second administration of the test will be on Tuesday, August 24, 2010, at the Neptune facility. Testing will begin promptly at 9am.

It is critical that all students arrive that morning on time and ready to perform at their highest possible level. Students should be prepared for a "school day" of assessments, and should bring a lunch. No food will be provided. The language arts portion of the test will be given promptly at 9am and will run for approximately 2 1/2 hours. The mathematics portion of the test will begin at 12:15pm, and run for approximately 1 1/2 hours. In some cases, students who have performed well on the TABE are able to recover credit lost at their home school, or are able to be placed in a more advanced program of study in either math or language arts, or both.

If any new student can not attend the testing session at the Neptune facility at their scheduled time, or if you have not been notified as to which testing session you are scheduled to attend, please call the school to arrange an alternative date as soon as possible.
